Sacchi: If AC Milan win title it's a masterpiece

Posted Tuesday, March 15, 2022 by Tribalfootball.com

Former Italy coach Arrigo Sacchi says the Scudetto battle remains wide open.

AC Milan remain leaders of the table after the weekend round.

"Football is a team sport. Inter look like a squeezed lemon, they arrived in Torino against a great team and it's not easy to face them now, the same is true of Verona," Sacchi told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"They are aggressive teams that play with intensity. Atalanta paid a high price for the game against Leverkusen and the same goes for Inter's win in Liverpool. Surely, teams play too many games in modern football."

On former club Milan, Sacchi also said: "There are teams that put the single player at the core of their project. Other teams put the playing style, which is used to help the single footballer. Milan are among those and that's why unknown players emerge.

"However, Milan must always play well because they don't have the experience or technical knowledge of expensive players. Milan players are not expensive. If they win the title, it's a masterpiece because they've built a team without spending much. I like how they play. They are not the best team, but they play the best football. Against Empoli, they were not up to the task, but for once, it's ok."
